Yellow Barn Music Haul’s inaugural road trip was a cross-country journey that began in Putney VT, continued on to Baltimore MD, and concluded in Dallas TX. The Music Haul visited ten locations over the course of seven days, ranging from schools to neighborhood gathering places. The final performace took place on October 22, 2016 at the Nasher Sculpture Center, which celebrated the opening of its Soundings concert series with Music Haul.

“Yellow Barn Music Haul takes music out into the community, out into the streets, where people can encounter it in ways that are as meaningful as they are unexpected. This is something we feel is absolute with Nasher’s mission, with our purpose, and something that will be really embraced in Dallas,” says Nasher Sculpture Center Director Jeremy Strick. “I think that the partnership between Soundings and Yellow Barn has had a profound impact on Dallas. People really look forward to the performances and simply to the presence of the musicians from Yellow Barn. These are occasions for excitement and for joy.”
